Historic narrative:
 Rogers House
 Address: 4441 Hogback Road, Palmyra 

This 2-story home was built with small red cobbles on the front and mixed-color cobbles on the sides. It has cut limestone lintels, quoins and sills but look closely at the side windows under the porch. They're the only ones with lintels set on edge. There's a field cobble foundation. The porch was added in 2005.
